I was also wondering if all australian delivered 85 autos got the A28.06(lower ratios) trans rather than the A28.05?
Also apparently some Aust delivered 85 MY also got the M28.22 engine optioned with M151(9.3comp ratio pistons) and had a fair bit less hp.
I was considering that M151 and M251(A28.06) may have been an engine trans package?
I ask all this because I really don't want to end up with a lower hp (m151) 928 and as the trans designation is really easy to see on the build sticker under the carpet in the hatch, it could be an easy I.D for the engine option.
Hope that makes some sense! Lol
Cheers

Hi Jason-

I'm afraid that I am not knowledgeable RE: variants among Australian market cars. From the PET database it looks like there were 163 928's with the C23 country code for Australia. The problem is that all but 18 are listed as A28.06 automatics with the M28.22 engine, but the other 18 have no engine or trans listed, and no option codes that would indicate manual vs. automatic.

Regardless of what incomplete databases say, after 29 years the only way that I would be _positive_ that a candidate car has an M28.22 and an A28.06 would be to directly inspect the engine stamp pad under the upper radiator hose, and the transmission serial # stamping. Lots can happen to a car in almost 30 years...

Ruri-

That VIN belongs to a 2008 911 Turbo. I'm sure it's lovely but I don't know what its option codes are. Only for 928s from 1980 to 1995 are the options known.

Thanks Rob.
I ended picking this bad boy up this past weekend.
I was hoping it had LSD but not a deal breaker.
